PCI riser card expansion slot
The PCIe riser card attached to the PCI cage converts the functionality of the system board expansion
slot to the slot positioned at a 90° angle from the system board.
NOTE: Users have the option to replace the standard riser card in slot 1a&1b with other four models
using the dual PCIe x8 riser card, single PCIe x16 riser card, dual PCI-X riser card, or PCIe x16 &
dual PCI-X riser card option kit. This will allow support for PCIe x8, PCIe x16, and PCI-X devices.
